Great App

This review is about the app itself, not the show’s content. The app works great and is easy to navigate. The app works until I close it. In other words, it doesn’t unexpectedly close or turn off. *The content is also great and timely.

Constant Ad Interruptions

Need a paid version to remove adds. Unable to use at times. Happens with the web stream too though so it's not technically the app. 7/19: Now even more ads! 9/23: Still paying the 20 second streaming penalty😔

Great station, terrible app

App keeps freezing. It has one basic job: live stream the station. It should be able to stream more than 5 minutes at a time, but after the recent update I am lucky to get that much. WUWM deserves better.

Continuing issues

I deleted this app today due to the issues mentioned in other reviews going back two years: long, frequent ads and internet connection glitches. I’ll just listen on the radio or on the NPR podcasts.

Disappointed

I tried to use the App for Tues Giving Day it it was frozen

My NPR

I love it

My everyday companion

I listen every day and appreciate the quality of local and national shows. Thank you!

Internet connection or glitchy app

I’ve got the same complaint as others: a story is interrupted by a “Support for WUWM is provided by…” and when the story comes back, it doesn’t start where it cut out. The interruptions happen frequently enough to be irritating. Appreciate and support the station, and depend on the app so I can take it everywhere, but miss important bits of stories several times each hour.

Great app. So glad to be able to listen to NPR wherever I am.

Awesome app.

Jump the shark not the dial!

What can I say? WUWM, Milwaukee’s NPR is serving up great news, entertainment, laughs and some hometown flavor. And with this app the hits keep coming when you’re away from your radio. Now initially there were some hiccups with the app when it first debuted but since then it’s been smooth sailing for me. There’s of course always room for improvement but I think that the app’s format and operation has been steadily improving and I think it’s a great resource for Milwaukee. Ayyyy!
